Strawberry-Pineapple Sundaes

Description:

As good to look at as they are to eat, these sundaes turn a weeknight meal into a celebration.

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh strawberries

1 8-ounce can pineapple chunks, juice drained

1/2 cup strawberry jam, preferably “all-fruit”

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 cups nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt

Mint sprigs, for garnish (optional)

Preparation:

1

Pull green tops off strawberries. Slice the strawberries and put half in a small saucepan. Add pineapple chunks, jam and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries are soft, about 5 minutes. Carefully stir in the remaining strawberries (the sauce will be very hot). Set aside to cool.

2

To serve, spoon most of the sauce into 4 ice cream dishes and top with scoops of frozen yogurt. Spoon the remaining sauce on top. Garnish with mint sprigs if desired.
